A Tale of Two Cities

Have you ever read this book, A Tale of Two Cities? I have not read this book, and I don’t know about this book. This book’s cover picture was a little bit scary. That’s why I chose this book. This book story was about like an execution. A man is going to be put to death. The man has a wife. But he is going to be put to death. It was very sad. And in this story, how to kill the person was by guillotine, so that was too scary.
